Mars Komagatake IPA Cask Finish Single Malt Japanese Whisky is a distinctive Japanese single malt crafted at Mars Shinshu Distillery in Nagano, Japan. This expression is finished in IPA beer casks, bringing together the rich malt character of Komagatake whisky with the refreshing bitterness and aromatic influence associated with India Pale Ale.
The IPA cask finish adds layers of citrus, herbs, tropical fruit, malt sweetness, and gentle hop bitterness to the whisky’s smooth character. Bottled at 52% ABV, this unique expression offers a flavorful balance of whisky richness and beer-cask complexity, making it an excellent choice for Japanese whisky enthusiasts and collectors.
